my president is black, in fact he's half white...

3 days --
5 trips to the mall --
2 iced chai lattes with soy --
1 awesome coffee sleeve --
2 (3, if counting my mom's) yummy cupcakes --
6 radio shack workers --
2 ac adapters (neither of which was mines) --
and finally, the dvd player is now back in action: geez, so much trouble for such a little thing. any guesses as to what's/who's on screen...hmm. anyway, like i stated above i got another cupcake today. i seriously grab the local paper now just for the coupon. good thing the paper's free (and i know where to get them, my work being one of the places). this time my mom got one too. i got the same thing from yesterday and my mom got a vanilla cupcake with cream chesse and graham crackers. next time i go back i'm getting something different...i was just so frazzled (yeah, i don't know why) i couldn't think about trying something new.


My president is black, in fact he’s half white
So even in a racists mind he's half right
If you got a racists mind you'd be alright
My president is black but his house is all white
Rosa Parks sat so Martin Luther could walk
Martin Luther walked so Barack Obama could run
Barack Obama ran so all the children could fly
So Ima spread my wings you can meet me in the sky

the ladies at the shop have some interesting political conversations with each other. i just tend to hang back and do more listening than talking. i just rather take the positive outlook on things now. it makes life livable...hopefully, i can keep that up.

and now i'll return to being lost while watching lost.

till later.

cupcake, inauguration, and coffee sleeves...

well, today was a little better than yesterday. i did end up going back to mall, though the problem is still not fix...and doesn't look like it will be. can't i just get back my charger. who knows if that will even help. it is still usable, so i guess it'll have to do for now. but i did leave the mall with two of my favorite things:

a red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese frosting and pink sugar and an iced chai latte with soy!!! yummy!!!there is this pretty new (i remember it opening in like nov/dec) cupcake store in the mall and i got a coupon for a free mini cupcake out of the local paper. i ended up upgrading it for $1.50 more because the mini was pretty mini and i knew i'd end up wanting more. not only did it look pretty but it was quite tasty. i think i'm going to stock up on those coupons and get one whenever i'm at the mall (i think the coupons expires sometime in feb).

then i went to starbucks for my chai and their coffee/hot sleeves were in honor of inauguration day:though my drink was not hot, i grab myself one. i wonder if other places had different sleeves? probably. maybe.

and i just need to say, i couldn't help but laugh at myself as i walked around the mall carrying around my little cupcake like it was something of importance. but hey, to me it was, haha.

so today was a pretty good day and not just because of the cupcake (though cupcakes can always make a bad day turn out better). today was a good day because today is a new day. with a new president. with a new start. with a new outlook.

on days like this, it's hard not to think things are pretty good...well, until the next time i have a breakdown or another one of my "moments."

till later.
